Tiny USB business card

Tiny USB business card: "


[Frank Zhao] put together a USB business card. It’s even got the instructions printed right on the silk screen of the PCB explaining how it should be used. He based the design around an AVR ATtiny85 microcontroller. It runs the V-USB package that handles USB identification and communication protocols. The rest of the hardware is pretty standard, the uC draws power from the 5V USB rail, with a couple of 3.6V Zener diodes to drop the two data lines down to the proper level.


Once plugged in it waits until it detects three caps lock keypresses in a row, then spews a string of its own keypresses that type out [Frank's] contact information in a text editor window (video after the break). It’s not as reusable as the mass storage business card because [Frank] didn’t breakout the pins on controller. But we still enjoy seeing business cards that make you stand out.


This is a great project to tackle with your newly acquired AVR programming skills.



[Thanks Harald]

[LG] E900 Optimus 7 -- How to Developer Unlock, Relock and keep your device Unlocked (Works in Mango!)

For some reason I have never been able to get the LG Optimus E900h to stay unlocked. The registry editers we currently have in our possesion can not edit the needed keys nor can we use provxml because once again it for some reason will not work on our devices. Here is a 100% way to keep the LG Optimus 7 phone from relocking. Instead of using 3rd party apps we will use the native LG MFG application. Known Bugs:  ChevronWP7 will no longer detect your phone! Not sure why but it doesn't. This shouldn't be a problem considering your phone is unlocked. A factory restore will revert the changes. Also you may not debug with VS2010. Also unsure why. Notes: Enter everything without quotes, and please be careful. Don't hold me responsible if you screw up your phone. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ How to Un-Lock your Phone without Chevron 7 You can unlock the phone by using the MFG registry editor.
